    What's the story

    With over four days of action still to go, India have reached their best medal haul at the Asian Games.

    The Indian contingent achieved this feat after Jyothi Surekha Vennam and Pravin Ojas Deotale won the gold medal in the compound archery mixed team event on October 4.

    It was India's 71st medal at the 2023 Asian Games currently underway in Hangzhou, China.

    Context

    Why does this story matter?

    Jakarta held the previous Asian Games edition in 2018 where India had a 570-strong contingent.

    India won a total of 70 medals (16 gold, 23 silver, and 31 bronze medals). It was the nation's best medal haul at the Asian Games.

    Before the ongoing Asian Games, the Indians won over 60 medals in only one other edition (65 in 2010, Guangzhou).

    Jyothi Surekha and Pravin Ojas then won gold in the compound archery mixed team event. This gave India a record-breaking 71st medal.
